Non-dominated Sorting in Genetic Algorithms-II (NSGA-II) is a popular non-domination based genetic algorithm for solving multi-objective optimization problems. This paper investigates the application of NSGA-II technique for the design of a Thyristor Controlled Series Compensator (TCSC)-based controller and a power system stabilizer. The design objective is to improve both rotor angle stability...

using new approaches to optimize the process of power transmission line routing can solve many complex problems which power transmission line routing decision-makers are faced. due to the expansion of involved parameters we can consider multi-objective evolutionary algorithms as appropriate method in this area. in this thesis with using multi-objective evolutionary algorithms nsga-ii and offere...

distribution centers (dcs) play important role in maintaining the uninterrupted flow of goods and materials between the manufacturers and their customers.this paper proposes a mathematical model as the bi-objective capacitated multi-vehicle allocation of customers to distribution centers. an evolutionary algorithm named non-dominated sorting ant colony optimization (nsaco) is used as the optimi...

In Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), coverage and connectivity are the vital challenges in target-based region. The linear objective is to find positions cover complete target nodes between each sensor for data forwarding towards base station given a grid with points potential placement position. this paper, multiobjective problem on WSN (t-WSN) derived, which minimizes number of deployed n...

Controllers design problems are multi objective optimization problems as the controller must satisfy several performance measures that are often conflicting and competing with each other. In multi-objective approach a set of solutions can be generated from which the designer can select a final solution according to his requirement and need. This paper presents the design and analysis Proportion...

Abstract. This paper examines the effect of crossover operations on the performance of EMO algorithms through computational experiments on knapsack problems and flowshop scheduling problems using the NSGA-II algorithm. We focus on the relation between the performance of the NSGA-II algorithm and the similarity of recombined parent solutions. First we show the necessity of crossover operations t...

NSGA-II and its contemporary EMO algorithms were found to be vulnerable in solving many-objective optimization problems having four or more objectives. It is not surprising that EMO researchers have been concentrating in developing efficient algorithms for manyobjective optimization problems. Recently, authors suggested an extension of NSGA-II (NSGA-III) which is based on the supply of a set of...

Multiobjective cellular genetic algorithms (MOcGAs) are variants of evolutionary computation algorithms by organizing the population into grid structures, which are usually 2D grids. This paper proposes a new MOcGA, namely cosine multiobjective cellular genetic algorithm (C-MCGA), for continuous multiobjective optimization. The CMCGA introduces two new components: a 3D grid structure and a cosi...

Many control problems involve simultaneous optimization of multiple performance measures that are often noncommensurable and competing with each other. Traditionally, classical optimization algorithms based on nonlinear programming or optimal control theory is applied to obtain the solution of such problems using different scalar approaches. The presence of multiple objectives in a problem usua...
